Chapter 4

Gorgon is a magical monster originating from Greek Mythology and has existed in the earliest examples of Greek literature.

This malevolent creature appears to be a female humanoid, but where human women have beautiful smooth white legs; Gorgons instead have a long snake tail for their lower bodies. Some even depicted to have living, writhing, venomous snakes growing from their scalps instead of hair. One which is extremely infamous example was the mythical Medusa whose eyes carried a terrifying curse of turning people to stone if one looks directly at them.

The most infamous trio Gorgons that appeared in many kinds of literature was the sisters named Stheno, Euryale, and Medusa. Daughters of the sea god Phorcys and his sister and wife, Ceto. Though, according to the legend, the one who birthed such monster was Athena who cursed Medusa for some ambiguous reasons. And this curse was passed towards her sisters who stayed with her.

In addition to the Legend of the three Gorgon Sisters, there is also, Lamia who was turned into a monster by a pissed Hera; the jealous Queen of the Gods of Greek Mythology.

The Mortal Queen of Libya ended up with that snake body and fed on children's blood. Then she spawned offspring, and they all have the body of a snake. In many stories they're similar to succubae, seducing men and feeding on their blood. Due to it, many female monsters, with an upper-body of beautiful women with a lower body of a serpent, are now being called as a Lamia.

And just like those stories and myths, a beautiful woman with the lower half of a snake was in front of him.

The beautiful woman doesn't have the usual blinding, shining legs but a snake tail. So, in Rain’s perceptive, rather than being called as a Gorgon, the creature before him was more of a Lamia. Even still, both versions are depicted as evil and cold-blooded murderers.

“Are you scared now?”

A cold and indifferent voice fluttered through his ears. The voice held a mocking tone as if she was looking down on him; “Well, I haven’t eaten a human yet, so this would be my first time…”

Those words plunged Rain from the highest heavens to the deepest hell.

His body trembled and despair colored his eyes.

One after another, he thought. He might have been saved by those monster dogs but now, he was once again captured and ready to be eaten by a Lamia. How can he be so unlucky to meet terrifying monsters one after another?

Was someone out there, against of him living?

He had only lived for less than twenty years, it couldn’t be my karma, right?

Or is it the karma of the me from the previous life?

What did the ‘me’ actually do to warrant such fate?

“Pl, Please… do, don’t eat me…” Rain muttered. Some faint tears flowing through, something he could not control due to fear and despair. His body trembling; “I, I will do anything… ple, please do, don’t kill me…”

No one wanted to die… he was no exception.

No matter what, no matter how hard life was, he still wanted to live. He had never experienced the good thing of life, and he didn’t want to give up desiring them.

Even if it to cling to demons or the vilest demons, any men would do just to survive.

“Hm?”

He tried to appeal but he was only responded by a cold and mocking smile. Though, even with that smile, she looks so beautiful and enchanting that it easily defeat any models back in Earth. Fair skin, as white as a sheet of paper, but didn’t show any expression of unhealthy skin. Glimmering in the light, her scales are like precious gems and the coils of her body as graceful as swan. She looks like a natural-born enchantress.

“I, I am not delicious… I’m ski, skinny and weak.” Rain started saying. “I have many diseases Tuberculosis, Malaria, Ebola, Cholera, and I even have AIDS, Hepatitis, Chancroid and much more, you, you will get sick after eating me… so, so pl, please let me go…”

Rain narrated all the diseases he remembered while his face already distorted in fear and anxiety.

[ Master… ] Sylphy’s pained voice echoed inside his mind.

The Lamia in front of him seems to be amused at Rain’s reaction as a faint smile appeared on her lips. “Human sure are strange. Although I don’t understand what you’re mumbling about,” Then her expression once again turned cold. Her ruby eyes glimmered dangerously and with a 'But', she continued, “I don’t like humans…”

“Y, yeah…I, I think we can be close friends with that. I too dislike humanity, we, well for the most part.”

Hearing Rain’s words, the Lamia who was moving her body closer to him stops. As if thinking something, she frowned. Then her eyes narrowed, “However…you said you’ll do anything, right?”

Rain immediately nodded his head. Even if he was asked to be a slave, he wouldn’t care as long as he survives!

He would just think anything after that!

Then, she reached her hand out. Rain trembled but surprisingly the hands went to his t-shirt, and tear it apart.

“Eh?” Rain made a blank expression. Not understanding anything…

Wait, you should at least not torn it apart, that's my spiderman shirt...!

What’s happening?

“You said anything…” The Lamia spoke. “Then you will become mine, a problem?”

The Lamia continued stripping Rain his clothes off, no, tearing them apart. Finally, just finally, Rain understands her meaning.

... And the youth’s pale face immediately turned bright crimson.

“Ah, ahm…wa, wait, please, I've never, I, I'm not married! I have never done anything like that before!" Rain panicked.

He tried to struggle but due to the tail tightly coiled around him, much less waved his hand, he could even hardly move.

"Oh HO!" The Lamia hissed; a virgin! "… And at your age, I am surprised, you are not unpleasant to look upon, and you are quite nicely endowed. How is it you have not married and sired a horde of brats?"

“I, I’m still a minor! I can’t possibly…” Rain bit his lips, somewhat awkward. Why is he telling this to a monster like her? “…an, anyway, I haven’t even gotten a girlfriend yet. Up, up until now, I was working and studying, and couldn’t find a time to have such… you, you know… something like that. Be, besides, I’m poor.

"Hm, that sounds like a grim life", the lamia said, "So you are a slave, working against your will. A man should not spend his youth in little more than slavery, and be denied his basic needs. None of my concern though. From here on out, you will be mine, and your body shall be dedicated only to me… you don’t have any complains whatsoever, if you do, dare not forget, your poor little life shall be the price,” a grim laugh rang out from her as she continued to caress Rain’s body.

Due to working since he was able, Rain’s body might not be great and bulky like a weightlifter, but just like the Lamia had mentioned, he was still well-endowed.

Muscles with no excess fat, slender but not overly thin either, one can even be said that it was quite a feminine figure in the eyes of the Lamia. In this world, where the amount of muscles is the very definition of a great warrior, such physique can only be seen among women who stay in the house and do chores.

Hardly believable that he has the proper strength to be able to kill two Bone Eaters and several Goblins.

The Lamia wondered as she continued to stroke Rain’s body. When she first got here, she had seen the corpses and wondered what kind of monster had appeared. However, when he traced the blood, she had seen something so unexpected she thought she was hallucinating.

A human…

That’s right, a human being deep in the cave.

More so, this human being was a youth so young he perhaps didn’t pass yet twenty years in age. With a face dirty, but still hardly able to conceal the beautiful face that looks like that of a woman, and a body so thin but not impoverished.

She had seen many humans before, much less a man. However, all she saw about were human male with bulky muscles as if trying to display and showcase their impressive power and strength.

But this youth… he looks like a noble, not having taken a sword nor fought against even dogs in his entire life.

But if he was a noble, indeed… how did he appear at this very deep of the Desolate Cave?

This cave, that not even the most famous and illustrious human adventurers dare to enter…?

A mystery…

Rain glared at the Lamia in front of him with a bitter smile. Slavery…? That’s out of the topic. He was never a slave. Still, not the important part, he thought.

"You talk about slavery", Rain said, trying to appear brave and courageous; “so what is this then? And most would call it a vile perversion, to be forced to...to service a, a..."

"Monster, vile creature of darkness??" The Lamia hissed angrily; her glaring eyes gleaming dangerously as if she would devour Rain at any given moment, "Yes, I guess we are all of those, but even if I am… would it still matter? Can you even get away from me…alive? I wonder?”

“… …”

“Now choose, son of man… I hardly had any habit of forcing myself to any who saw us as a detestable creature. I rather die than force myself to those who look at us with scorn and disgust. Will you be mine, for eternity, or will you die and be my food…”

Not like I like eating humans…

The Lamia scowled inwardly. She would never stoop so low just like how her people do, make love to those unwilling and kill them after due to emotional distress.

I am also a woman…

And I also have my pride…!

Rain’s expression darkened, but judging from his current situation, indeed—“So it shall be then,” he sighs with a wry smile.

An embarrassment at being nude having reached a new level including fear and...maybe just a little curiosity. She did have such lovely breasts. He mused. Her breasts were enormous. Breasts that large were simply not perky, but these were.

They rode high and proud on her chest, and her nipples were stiff with arousal.

Although there was a fear of being eaten and killed in the end, if that truly happened, then might as well have some little fun, for I rather die, satisfied, than die a virgin.

Seeing Rain’s expression, the Lamia snorted and flicked her tongue on Rain’s chest and neck. The moist, long tongue felt some kind of electrocuting sensation that caused his entire body to shiver, “Wa, wait…”

“What?”

The Lamia showed an annoyed expression, her eyes glaring.

“I, It’s my first time, so, so, please be gentle…” Rain acted like a maiden in her first escapade. He looked extremely bashful and shy, even his figure looked small and weak. He looked like a little animal, surrendering to its fate on the jaws of its predator.

The Lamia let out a grin, amused. But that perhaps might be out of character. She glared at him and didn’t say anything else, loosening of her tail and grasped his pants before yanking them out. In a matter of seconds, he was already naked. Completely bare.

The Lamia’s tail coiled around him once again causing him to become unable to move. Perhaps, it was to prevent him from escaping or struggling for his last hope. Which is completely unneeded.

Rain has always been a realistic person. If something was already predetermined and set in stone, he would do no such thing as a struggle, for he saw it as a foolish action. Struggling until the last moment, will only induce far more despair and crushing hope.

Sighing about his helpless fate, he suddenly felt being raised in the air.

“Oh, so this is what ‘it’ looks like…”

The Lamia muttered in astonishment while looking at Rain’s member.

“Interesting…”

Her slim fingers suddenly grabbed his dick and started caressing ‘it’ with an expression of curiosity. She was already leaning over, examining him as if he was an interesting specimen in a lab. Her slim fingers caressing Rain’s legs. And as she kept on caressing him, her slender and warm hands made Rain’s rod quickly rise up becoming thick and long.

Rain felt like all of his blood was concentrated on his pillar.

The Lamia’s hand only grabbed it gently, but it became as hard as a steel bar.

As the palms of her hands touched his little guy, it went crazy. In less than a few seconds it already jumped out of the palm of her hand. Now it wouldn’t fit in both hands. She estimated that the length must have been over 20 centimeters, and the diameter must have been no less than 6 centimeters.

Although being unable to move made him uncomfortable, but the moment some beautiful girl looked at your little brother, as if examining a very rare creature, Rain couldn’t help but get a boner.

“Oh!” The Lamia was surprised as the wimpy little kid suddenly transformed into Superman. “It looks quite disgusting…”

The Lamia’s words made Rain wanted to find a hole to jump into.

“Can such a crude thing even fit inside a woman’s body? What kind of woman would be able to bear such a thing?”

Looking at Rain’s little guy, the Lamia could not help but gasp.

As the Lamia stood in front of him, Rain could also see her graceful curves. The beautiful Lamia was only wearing a thin hide, covering her chest so Rain could see two impressive peaks that would make any man excited. According to Rain’s studies, the most terrifying thing was not the two towering mounds on her chest but the triangular green mound below.

Rain really wanted to see her Shangri-la. But even with great effort he couldn’t see anything, because of his current position, not to mention the dim light around them.

“Why are you so nervous? Never seen a woman before?”

The Lamia noticed Rain’s fervent gaze and couldn’t help but raised her eyes and looked at him provocatively. She liked to tease people like this, especially the young man that was in front of her. Obviously, he had never tasted a woman before and from her experience, she could tell just from looking.

“You, you are really beautiful!”

Rain’s compliment was largely out of fear because right now he was a lamb ready to be slaughtered without any possibility of resistance. If the Lamia pulled hard at this moment, his currently hard stem would be uprooted. Even with a teasing smile on her face, such a woman could turn hostile at any moment.

“Hm, at least you have a sweet mouth. There’s a worth for you to be kept by me,”

The Lamia’s hand was currently pressing down his rod onto his stomach. Her palm slid upwards all the way up to his chin. “You should feel lucky. I am the one who found you. If it was someone else, you would have become dried bones by now…”

“… …”

The Lamia’s hands once again grabbed his thick rod. Inside her bewitching eyes there was a sinister look. “So, you should consider it properly, your attitude that is. If you make me unhappy, even the slightest moment, I will make you regret living, human…”

The Lamia’s laughter made the two mounds on her chest tremble. Her interest in Rain became greater. Before she was mainly interested in him because of he was a human who had come into this cave. Now it was because the Lamia felt neither disgust nor hate from his eyes as he looks at her.

Intriguing… it’s as if he was really looking at her like a normal woman.

Her interest was piqued. It seems like there is worth keeping this man by her side.
